Chapter 9, Chapter 10: The road is long and resistant

Aye!"

Hao shouted loudly, in the wind and rain, this voice seemed very small, but Aiyi, who had been paying attention to Hao, immediately reacted, she immediately stood firm in this rapids with the support of two guards, and then stretched out her hands and began to gesture, and began to chant incantations in her mouth, this second-order magic has been analyzed and optimized by Hao, and the load is very small, even in this bumpy and noisy environment, she can easily use this magic.

After only a few seconds, Ay stopped chanting the incantation and pointed forward, and immediately, a huge rock wall was erected in front of the waterway in front of him, this rock wall was at least thirty meters wide, close to one meter thick, and as soon as it was erected, the waterway was completely blocked, and the mudslide that rushed down was immediately blocked by this rock wall, and rushed towards both sides of the waterway.

With this buffer, Hao helped the clansmen, and at the same time ordered the clansmen to evacuate from this waterway as soon as possible, and marched in the direction of the halfway slope, everyone was in chaos, many human women and children did not have the strength to struggle out of the swamp, and it was also thanks to Yinkong and Anyang, the two elven clan war system transcendents, their strength was very large, and the speed was also fast, and the two people in front and behind pulled out at least about two hundred people, until this time, everyone left the waterway and went to the side of the mountainside.

Everyone raised their eyes and saw that there was a torrent rushing down the hill in the distance, carrying broken wood, rock fragments, etc., and the force of a thousand jun washed out, that is, no matter how thick the blocking rock layer was, it was finally unable to resist, and the entire rock layer was washed away, which carried the torrent of mud, rocks, and broken trees that carried an unknown amount of sediment, rocks, and broken trees, and rushed down the waterway, tumbling and rushing far away.

Everyone looked at this scene with palpitations, under the mudslide just now, if it weren't for Ae's magic protection, it would be almost impossible for all of them to survive, this is the power of nature, I'm afraid that the high-level warriors were directly involved, and it is unknown whether they can survive or not.

Hao with six hundred people, in this wilderness trek for five days, this period is actually quite smooth, the current season in this area is estimated to be spring, the temperature is neither hot nor cold, about 28 degrees to 30 degrees during the day, 16 degrees to 20 degrees at night, this temperature is actually just right, and because of the Spring Festival, when the team is on the road during the day, you can hunt many wild animals, many of which are very tasty, nutritious meat sources.

And here is the climate of the Spring Festival, many plants have begun to grow, there are all kinds of flowers everywhere, there are also some fruits or plant tubers can be eaten, the most important thing is that along the way, Hao also found a lot of magic medicines, although they are not very precious, but these magic herbs are indeed in short supply, so that Ai Yi can make some urgently needed magic potions, such as the treatment of diseases, the treatment of various poisoning magic potions, these are the most needed materials in the wild.

During this period, Hao would analyze at least one magic technique for Ai Yi every day, and Ai's strength was also accumulating and strengthening day by day, otherwise she would not have been able to use this magic that was almost close to the third order strength today.

It is precisely because of the relationship between the seasons and the harvest in these five days that Lian Hao has neglected the dangers of the wilderness, and to this day, the weather was fine, but as he walked, it suddenly rained, and then the ground was washed by the mud and sand, and the natural path that everyone originally walked in order to save physical strength immediately became a muddy swamp waterway, and it was only a few minutes before and after, and a large amount of muddy water washed down from the heights, which was the previous scene, and the whole team was almost wiped out here.

After coming to this hillside, the cold wind blew, and it was raining heavily in the sky, except for the two battle system transcendentals, the rest of the people were shivering with cold, Hao looked at the heavy rain in the sky, in this case, it was impossible for Ai Yi to use magic to keep warm, the heavy rain did not stop, how much magic power could she consume?

Fortunately, Hao was also prepared earlier, and at this time, at the sound of an order, a clansman immediately took out a huge piece of animal fur that was sewn together from a large package, and as the first fur was taken out, one after another people took out the large fur sewn by the fur of various animals, and then used various wooden sticks to cover the four corners, and then inserted it on the ground, so that there was barely some place to keep out the rain.

The tribesmen all took action, and after more than ten minutes, everyone could barely stand in a place where there was no rain, and only then did Ay use his magic, and under the warm blow, all the tribesmen and elves' clothes began to dry, and the cold could barely be overcome.

At this time, an elf clan came to Hao's side and said: "God, there are many trees on the slope of the mountain, do you want to find one to live in, although it is still early today, but the heavy rain will not stop immediately, why don't we find a big tree and set up camp?"

Hao looked at the sky at this time, and shook his head at the elf and said: "Noldor, no, at least not now, this rain is too heavy, there may be landslides or mudslides on the nearby hillsides, the tree house technique is not a mansion technique, if the tree is destroyed, the magic space inside will also be destroyed, the danger is too great, let's wait here for the rain to stop." ”

The elf, named Noldor, was slightly disappointed when he heard this, but he didn't say anything more, and returned to the elves himself.

Hao sighed in his heart, he knew that these elves had actually worked hard, but after all, they had lived in a civilized and prosperous world all their lives, and the fatigue and pressure they had accumulated were actually very great after the bumpy trek of these days, but they had to get used to it, and they had to accept it, and Hao couldn't help them at this point.

Since signing the master-servant contract in Oranri, and Hao got the map of the relics, they have no way out, whether it is Hao or them, and Hao himself will keep moving forward, keep moving forward, and will definitely not stop, he can still wait for them now, but in the future, if they fall behind......

Hao won't look back.

The heavy rain continued throughout the afternoon, and the rain did not stop until the evening, and there was no dry wood to burn around, although Ai Yi could light a fire with a fireball, but was stopped by Hao, so everyone ate some dry food prepared earlier that night, and barely rested under the heavy rain and night wind.

Because the whole land was a piece of water, no one including the elves could fall asleep that night, it was cold and wet, everyone didn't know how to hold on until dawn, and when it was morning, the heavy rain finally stopped, Hao looked at the earth from the halfway up the hill, what he saw was a piece of Zeguo, he was silent for a while, and then personally went down to the hillside to try, this land, at least the large area seen by visual inspection, is all two or three meters deep, people will sink into it as soon as they step on it, this situation, they can no longer continue to hurry.

Helpless, Hao could only return to the temporary camp, fortunately the rain had stopped at this time, Hao took the tribesmen to pack up these furs, and took the tribesmen and elves to the wooded area on the higher hillside, and then selected the largest and deepest tree, so that Ai used the improved treehouse technique, many clansmen and those elves were cheering, and entered this treehouse, which was dry and warm, and many tribesmen made food, and after eating one by one, they all snored and fell asleep quickly.

Hao didn't sleep, he walked out of the treehouse and began to take a closer look at the hillside area.

This hillside is not very large, if you walk, you can go around in about half an hour, to go to other slopes and the like, you need to pass through two or three meters deep water, the nearest slope is thousands of meters away, this waterside comes suddenly, I don't know if there is anything else inside, it is too unsafe.

β€œ...... It's all plains around here. ”

Hao closed his eyes, and a three-dimensional magnified map began to appear in his mind, this is the place where he led his people before, and the distance he saw before the rainstorm, all the terrain and geography were in his mind, this area, except for the small hills and small slopes, basically most of the area is a plain, and it is the kind of plain that has no height difference.

This torrential rain is like water splashing, if the rain is very large, then this area will fall into a long-term swamp state, that is, after the water level recedes, this grassland does not dare to step on it at will, a deep pit may kill many people, if this situation is viewed, they will be trapped here for at least half a month to a month......

"Food ......"

Hao returned to the treehouse from the bottom of the hillside in silence, he didn't enter the treehouse, but carefully searched for something on this hillside, just like that, he searched for a morning and half an afternoon, his face was a little lighter, when he returned to the treehouse, there were already elves and humans who had woken up, and then he left the treehouse with these awakened people, and took them to the jungle, pointing to some rotten branches on the ground, some rotten wood, and the trunks of some trees." Everybody pick these mushrooms, all the mushrooms, including the colorful ones, but don't eat them, just pick them, and remember to wash your hands afterwards. ”

After finishing speaking, Hao himself began to pick these mushrooms, the jungle on this hillside is not big, but it is relative to the entire earth, for human individuals, this jungle is not small, the number of mushrooms here is extremely large, Hao roughly estimated, if all the mushrooms in this wave are picked and the edible ones are selected, these mushrooms are enough for the people to eat for five or six days, which solves a large part of the food problem.

But it's not enough......

As more and more people wake up, there are more and more people picking mushrooms, and when night falls, there is still a third of the jungle that has not been picked, but if these mushrooms are not picked and dried as soon as possible, it is estimated that there will be a large number of them tomorrow, so there is no other way, Hao can only let Ai use the magic light, and everyone supports and grabs for more than three hours, and finally picks most of the mushrooms in the jungle.

After returning to the treehouse, Hao immediately began to pick these mushrooms with Aye, Hao has learned a lot, and Ay can use poison magic to distinguish, and the edible mushrooms that can be identified are all baked by a fire in the center of the treehouse, just like that, everyone is busy until the early hours of the morning, in addition to baking, there are also air-dried mushrooms, this is to be selected, after the clansmen and elves have slept, Hao also forced to find an open and dry rock platform outside the treehouse, and transported a large number of mushrooms suitable for air-drying there。

After that, Hao really couldn't stand it anymore, so he found a random place in the tree house and slept down.

When Hao woke up the next day, he felt soft and warm in his arms, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that Ai Yi was actually sleeping in his arms, which scared Hao so much that he didn't even dare to move, in fact, although the places where humans and elves slept were all this tree house, they were all Chase shops, but they had their own distinct paths, the elves disdained to get close to humans, and humans were afraid of the elves.

And yesterday Hao recalled carefully, when he entered the tree house, the light of the tree house had been adjusted to very dark, and he was really sleepy at that time, and subconsciously looked for a place with few people, so I thought about it, except for the elf clan, where are there few people......

Hao moved slightly, wanting to let Ai Yi go, but Ai Yi huddled tightly in his arms, and even grabbed the clothes on his chest, Hao tried several times and didn't put it down, and at that moment Hao was going to push Ai away hard, but he didn't want to At this time, Ai suddenly murmured in his mouth.

"Mom's ......"

Ay is a dark elf, it looks like a little girl who hasn't grown, this time there is a murmuring sound, Hao's heart is soft, he doesn't continue to move, let Ay use him as a pillow, at this moment, Hao thinks back to his childhood tribe, thinks of everyone, thinks of his mother......

You guys...... Are you okay in Human City?

(Well, I've done everything I needed to do yesterday, but I'm just going to check out the mushrooms...... Let's get a little more sleep today. οΌ‰

Then Hao closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he saw Aye and her light elf female guard, looking at him with a perverted gaze, while the rest of the elves immediately turned their eyes away as soon as Hao opened his eyes, and at the same time, the corners of their mouths were slightly upturned, and each whistled differently.

Hao wiped his face, then stood up, and said to Aid, "Miss Aid, I need your magic next, let's get ready and we will go, there are still a lot of things to do today." ”

Ai Yi pouted suddenly, but still followed behind Hao honestly.

These days, Hao commanded the clansmen, everything was handled properly, the elf clansmen are pure rookies in this wilderness, that is, Ai Yi, a second-order magician, is also a house mage, in these days, these elves have changed their attitude towards Hao again and again, and now, they have also acquiesced to Hao's leadership, which is purely impressed by ability.

Hao took the clansmen and the elves to the outside of the tree house, at this time the sky was already bright, the fresh air after the rain made everyone take a few deep breaths, the whole world as if washed, looking out on this hillside, you can see a long distance, there are birds chirping, the mountain breeze blows, neither cold nor hot, the sun is also just bright, so that everyone's mood becomes better all of a sudden.

Hao's mood was not very good, as soon as he thought that he would be trapped here for at least half a month, or even a month, he couldn't feel better, so he commanded the clansmen to turn over the mushrooms, and the dried mushrooms should also be carefully inspected, and then he took the rest of the clansmen and elves to the jungle.

Hao asked Ai Yi directly, "Miss Ai Yi, do you have any magic that can turn trees into boats?"

Ay was stunned for a moment, then shook her head again and again: "I don't have this, it sounds like transformation magic, or shaping magic, I haven't learned this, it's too remote, and no magician can build ships from trees." ”

Hao also knows this, he just asks with hope, after all, the magician has a noble status in the Flood Desolate Continent, and it is not a joke to be called the master, the so-called natural aristocracy refers to the magician, that is, he has to leave the civilized zone to go to the wilderness, and he doesn't know how many warriors he will bring to protect and serve the servants, and it is impossible to be trapped by the so-called flood and the like.

For example, the treehouse technique was invented by magicians for the comfort of the journey, and the advanced mansion technique reflects this.

But now Hao needs a boat, even if it can only carry a few people, or a ship of a dozen people, if you want to cut down and build it yourself, the energy consumption is too great, but unfortunately, magic seems to have a limit......

In desperation, Hao was able to ask Ai Yi to attach a few tools to the sharp technique, and then led the clansmen to cut the wood by hand, and at the same time commanded the clansmen to find some edible insect larvae from the rotting wood, which looked a little disgusting, but these larvae are edible, and the nutrition is not low, at this time, any food is precious.

Even Hao personally dug up many plant rhizomes that he didn't know, which were lumpy and had no strange taste, and he tried to eat some of them that night.

Then that night, Hao's eyes widened, he couldn't sleep no matter what, and at the same time, he had a stomach pull every half an hour, and at the same time, his lower body was abnormally bulging, so that Ai and the light elf female guards avoided him from afar, but the women of the clan slept next to him intentionally or unintentionally, and then Hao had to leave the tree house and blow the cold wind outside in the middle of the night......
